In my professional life, I have had the privilege to work amongst many people whom I learned a lot from them. I also tried to encourage many others to follow the path to success.

It was the third time that we ran Difinity conference in Auckland, New Zealand at Feb 2019.

It is a great thing that I start this blog with the good news about my latest pre-con for SQLNEXUS. I’ve presented some pre-cons before, and many courses so far.
